Can I find out how much VRT was paid on a car?
Hi,
The BMW X5 plug-in hybrid emits 77g/km and is 14 per cent VRT rate. Will this go down to 9 per cent VRT in January 2021?
Thanks

Hi,
What's the NOx of a 1992 Mercedes 190 E petrol 2.0-litre?
Hi,
Will VRT on a new BMW X5 xDrive45e M Sport be 7% with the new budget figures?
Thanks

We ordered a new car before the 2021 budget and paid a deposit. Even though the car won't be delivered until January 2021, I presume the new VRT rates will not change the price we agreed with the dealer?
What will the VRT be on a car with 109g/km of CO2 in 2021? At the moment it is 16 per cent of OMSP.
Thanks

What is the VRT rate for a 211 BMW X3 xLine xDrive20d? Let's say if I put in a factory order now and the car arrives in the middle of January, will I be charged under the new VRT rate?
Hi there,
In July I imported a 2019-reg car and was exempt paying VRT on it due to transferring residence back to Ireland. If I sell the car within one year I must pay the VRT - is the VRT due calculated on a set 12 months or whatever period less 12 months (i.e. so in November say nine months VRT)?

Will the budget VRT reduce the price of the Model 3 Tesla?
Hi there,
I have another question on VRT. Well actually a few questions! If you import a car from the UK in the last week of December 2020 and you have a VRT appointment in January 2021, will you be paying VRT (and possibly customs, VAT etc.) at the 2021 rate or will you still be calculated on the 2020 VRT rate?
If they change the VRT bands in the October budget will they be implemented straight away or do they wait until Jan 2021, usually?
I have looked at the Glasss guide in the UK for the vehicle that I am importing but there are no equivalents in the Irish market. Is there a way to get valuations for Irish equivalents or get my hands on the Car Sales Guide (ROI) as per the VRT request form?
Thank you in advance for any help on this matter.
